Love the reviews! We should all add reviews of the cigars we like.
H Upmann by AJ Fernandez: The first 1/3 of this one absolutely sucked imo. Just bitterness and pepper which eventually went down a notch but remained throughout. I tried everything I could, including tiny inhales, to pick up something other than burnt tobacco and that never happened. One positive was that when not being smoked it gave off that aroma unique to cigars which I quite enjoy. Construction was A+, firm and springy to the touch with a great draw. Burned perfectly throughout.

Yeah I am Not a fan of that one either. Switch is strange cause New World is my GO TO. Mainly all I smoke on these days. I recommend them for anyone that like a heavier cigar. Taste like Warm Pepper Steak.Perfect evening stick.
You can find them for around 7-9 dollars but cigarauctioneer has them for 85 a box most time and brings them to 4-6 dollar a stick. And they are a premium stick.
A real one or a Red Dot? Always wanted to try either one of them but really need to get my hands on a real one.yesterday smoked a cohiba at a pool party.
12 cigars for $50? Dafuq? This is either a very agressive marketihg strategy, or not very good cigars, or both. Nicaraguan cigars can be very good, tho. I love and recommend to all my friends to try Chieftain's Islay maduros, those are a festival of taste and aroma.Just ordered this. Been wanting to try this brand as I've heard good things and finally got around to it:

I've also never smoked that sort of rolled style either. Looking forward to it.

I sense a trip to Canada coming soon.
Man O' War is produced by AJ Fernandez and all the other stuff I've had from them I like.12 cigars for $50? Dafuq?

Edit: will be in Cuba in a week, three-week cigar binge incoming. I love Cohiba Siglo VI, and I very much enjoyed Bolivars last time.
That is a huge discount still. If the cigars are good then good for you, getting a nice cigar for 4 bucks is almost unheard of.Man O' War is produced by AJ Fernandez and all the other stuff I've had from them I like.
I think the price is that way because CigarsInternational gets a discount from AJ. See the MSRP on that set? 176.00 is what CI is saying they go for.
This is the Cohiba I am desperate to try:
I got to have one of these though. An attorney I see almost every week went to Cuba and came back with some. After the fact he found out I have a puff from time to time and gave me one. Not on my phone so I can't find the picture of it sadly.
Those I believe are the fancy ones from Cuba.That is a huge discount still. If the cigars are good then good for you, getting a nice cigar for 4 bucks is almost unheard of.
Which Cohibas are those?
I love Cuban tobacco but the quality of cigars varies a lot, you can have a perfectly rolled and a shitty rolled cigar laying beside each other in one box.
Dude, you do know there are like 100 kinds of fancy Cuban Cohibas, right?Those I believe are the fancy ones from Cuba.
